Height Map
A grayscale texture used as a displacement map to define the topography of the polygons. Usually the brighter pixels make higher elevations, and the darker pixels make lower elevations, and 50% gray pixels make no change. Often the alpha channel of an object's texture is used for the height map. Voxel landscapes often use height maps.
